YOUR CAR'S FIRST

FEW HUNDRED MILES

DRIVING

You can operate your new

car

from

its very first mile without adhering

to a formal "break-in" schedule.

However, during the first

few

hun-

dred miles of driving you can, by

observing a few simple precautions,

add to the future performance and

economy of your car.

recommended that your

speed during the first 500 miles

be confined to a maximum of 60

M.P.H., but do not drive for ex-

tended periods at

anyone

constant

speed, either fast

slow. Dur-

ing this period, avoid full throttle

starts and, if possible, avoid hard

stops especially during the first 200

miles of operation since brake mis-

use during this period will destroy

much future brake efficiency.

Always drive

moderate speed

until the engine has completely

warmed up.

you plan to use your new

car

for trailer hauling see additional

information on page 10.

reduce the risk of sliding under

belt during an accident, adjust

FIT

by pulling belt

firmly across lap in direction

retractor so it can take up slack. • Seating posItIOns next to side

windows have retractors which

are designed to automatically

tions should be positioned and

lease
